i-Teen-Road Trip

Go on a road trip. It will be the best decision you ever made.

Choose some friends who know how to have a good time. Be sure to make a list of all of the places you want to go and have them located on the map. Have cash for gas and souvenirs. Bring a camera, video camera and your favorite CDs. Just the few things I have listed are key to your trip.

Choosing the people you go with is mega mandatory. If you choose the right people, you’ll have a blast all the way to New Mexico. If you choose the wrong people, you may ‘accidentally’ leave them at the border.

Choose somewhere to go that’s realistic, somewhere that’s easy to find, and a plan B if it’s too crowded. Make sure to plan out gas stations, restaurants, and caf??s to stop. That is unless you want to live in the moment.

Spare cash is SO critical. If you don’t want to starve, be stranded, or miss out on souvenirs, bring along a wallet of cash or a wealthy friend. But beware, people can spot a vulnerable tourist a mile away and you don’t want to lose all that cash.

A video recorder and camera are always fun after the trip, for keeping memories, and during the road drive when there are miles and miles of nothingness. Music picks up the beat and keeps you alive on the trip.

The point of a road trip is living like you have no worries, buying things you find, and buying just because you like it, and seeing stuff that takes your breath away, while spending hours with your best friends.

If you want to plan your best memory, plan a road trip. It may seem completely unlikely that you would ever do something so spontaneous, but maybe that’s what you need. Why not?
